Abstract

The new edition of this popular book has been completely updated to take into account new mental health legislation and recent developments in the treatment of schizophrenia. The authors provide answers to the wide-ranging questions that carers may have about family members or friends suffering from schizophrenia. These include how to recognize symptoms of schizophrenia, the different types of schizophrenia, the various treatment options and a glossary of commonly used phrases and words. The involvement of family and friends in caring for a person with schizophrenia is also discussed, as well as details of who can provide help and support for the carers.
